That is a photoshop (thanks Donavan) of Pantone 296C. It's identified by its international Pantone color system only by number ...."296C". Jan built. LWB, full leather almost everywhere with silver stitch and silver belts, ceramics. No extra electronics, base radio only. Rich but simple was the goal. Should be a unique color indeed.

Ah, thanks and good call Jean!

That will look absolutely stunning.

Trying to keep it focused in a timeless rich color, full leather interior, ceramics, platinum wheels, but devoid of any extras (think 356 Speedster rich and simple) I was back and forth on the Radio delete. I love the delete in my RS (actually every porsche I own is radio delete come to think of it) and ultimately added it thinking I might use it. Still prefer the look without it.

I struggled with the radio as well. Didn't use it much in my boxster, so I thought about delete. Wound up with the Bose for trips with the spouse and the occasional longer commute.

i think that's a smart call. we all picture ourselves as hardcore to some extent but really, when you get in your car and go for a sunday drive.. you have highway, stoplights, some mountain twisties and then you want to relax.. music is a huge part of this experience. Unless I own a gt3RS... i'm listening to the stereo and enjoying it. Bose package was a no-brainer for me... somewhat regret not getting the burmeister but I didn't want to be such an outlier especially when I went full-donky kong with the leather in the interior.

Mile, What is your completion date? I'm trying to organize the PTS list by completion date.

Made this chart... feel free to post/pm your info and I will update it.
Felt it would be a good idea to track the PTS Spyders globally.

Don't know. SA will only say built in January.
Asked for the list of dates but he wouldn't forward it to me. He's saying it won't be accurate, since it's PTS.
I think I may have emailed him one too many times

Edit:
I'm getting the 18 way seats for your list

Mine is PTS Mexico Blue, with LWB seats, silver wheels, steel brakes, black interior w/ red stitching.
